Bière de blé sure brassée avec des framboises
Le goût surette dominant de la Solstice d’été est obtenu naturellement en laissant surir le moût non bouilli durant quelques jours. Le tout est complété par l’ajout durant la fermentation d’une quantité phénoménale de fruits entiers. Il en résulte une bière très rafraîchissante dans laquelle l’acidité et le fruit utilisé dominent sans partage.

Tap. Clear red color with pink head. Aroma is artificial raspberry and cherry flavours, yoghurt. Taste is the same, with quite a sweet slightly artificial fruit flavours, lightly tannic finish. Oily mouthfeel. Not quite my thing.

Draft glass @ Gollem. Bright pomegranate ruby red, pink head. Nose is heavy oddly milky profile with raspberry integrated, so milky,… Taste is the same weird milky raspberry profile, odd milky stuff, low acidity, jam, big raspberry,… Slick pallet,… Huge milky profile is odd & doesn’t fully work for me. Bit much, I remember the cherry version being quite different but there the fruit totally dominated.

Bottle at Lilla Barkarby. Hazy red with small slightly pink head. Fresh and nicely drinkable with raspberries, light funk and light citrus. Refreshing and easy to drink.

Tap at Gambrinus. Pours a deep red with a small rose colored head that dissipates quickly. Dark vinegar, black vinegar and deep raspberry notes. Clean and tart with some faint oak and lemon peel alongside gooseberry. --- Beer merged from original tick of Solstice d'Été Framboise on 16 May 2017 at 01:24 - Score: 8.

Refrigerated 11.5 oz. brown bottle poured into a glass. Beautiful opaque red with small pink head. Aroma is nice tart raspberry, medium body, lower carbonation, and little title lacing. Taste is lemon, tart raspberry, and slightly dry finish. Very nice easy drinking fruited Berliner.

11.5 ounce bottle into tulip glass, bottled on 7/6/2016. Pours fairly murky deep ruby red light pink/purple color with a 1-2 finger fairly dense light pink head with good retention, that reduces to a thin cap that lingers. Light spotty soapy lacing clings around the glass. Aromas of huge tart/sour/tangy raspberry, lemon, lime, green apple, red grape, wheat, and cracker; with light lacto funk, red wine vinegar, and yeast earthiness. Fantastic aromas with awesome complexity and balance of raspberries, fruity/acidic yeast, and light-moderate pale malt notes; with great strength. Taste of big tart/sour/tangy raspberry, lemon, lime, green apple, red grape, wheat, and cracker; with light lacto funk, red wine vinegar, and yeast earthiness. Moderate fruity/lactic sourness and tannic fruit tartness on the finish; with lingering notes of sour/tangy raspberry, lemon, lime, green apple, red grape, wheat, and cracker; with light lacto funk, red wine vinegar, and yeast earthiness on the finish for a while. Great complexity, robustness, and balance of raspberries, fruity/acidic yeast, and light-moderate pale malt flavors; with a nice malt/tart/sourness balance; lightly puckering, but not astringent. Moderate dryness from acidity/tannin, increasing through the glass. Medium carbonation and light-medium body; with a very smooth, acidic/tannic, fairly crisp, and lightly grainy/creamy balanced mouthfeel that is nice. Zero warming alcohol as expected of 5.9%. Overall this is an outstanding fruited Berliner weisse! All around awesome complexity, robustness, and balance of raspberries, fruity/acidic yeast, and light-moderate pale malt flavors; very smooth, crisp, and pretty refreshing too drink; even with the fairly strong acidity/sourness. Flavors were not as strong on the raspberries as the aromas led me to believe, but still had a nice amount of fruit presence. A highly enjoyable offering.
